"am i right in thinking that if you bought say a bed from ikea.. its likely you have to buy the slats separately and then screws?
Probably not the screws but the slats definitely. "
so its not quite as cheap as it initially looks then. |

Not when you factor in that their beds are a different size to anywhere else so you can only get bedding from there too.

I have only been in Ikea once and I panicked when I couldn't get out. From the time I spent in there, I spent bought some cutlery.

Im not keen on going Ikea as walking round it is painful and takes way to long but i love their furniture especially the more expensive stuff and i find it good value compared to furniture i have got from other places.
I tend to look for what i want online then just head for that and miss the rest out |

I'm so glad I'm not the only one who's not a fan. I've ever only been in Ikea once, we dont have one locally but I'm not likely to rush back! |

Way over Yonder, that's where I'm bound |
I feel I may have missed something today. Wardrobes have been mentioned a lot but Cheeky started a thread about Ikea that then clarified she only wanted sugar soap. I'm confused.
Once you know the layout of one Ikea you can work them all out and use the shortcuts. It takes too long to walk around following the arrows.

The branch in Wednesbury was a nightmare when I went there on Thursday. I went for one item, got totally lost in there, it took me almost 90 minutes to get in and out - never again - come back Argos, all is forgiven |

New year, new start, clear away the old and in with the new, also last week of the month, payday for many, no Christmas tree or decs, so people feel the need to spend and freshen up their nests. And possibly a sale. |

A bit like the back seats of a fiat 500, I actually surprised myself what we could do in such a small space |

Yeah, the one at Lakeside was pretty hellish this morning. Bookcase doors were half price, but I can't imagine that was drawing the crowds. |

Our Ikea is only a couple of miles up the road. Collecting Cheeky for that seems a little silly.

Why would you buy bits for a bed separately??? What if you are a bit skint? Do you buy the frame one month, and the slats the next? also, what bit do you buy first? Do you buy the slats this month and the screws next month or vice versa?
JohnLewis is the way forward, but don't you need to be CRB checked to shop there? Waitrose is the same I think |

Avoid the blue cube... you know before you go in that you really don't want isn't in there... but you can't find your way out until "you must have that really useful thing" completely forgetting the stress of building it, only to find it doesn't look anywhere near as good unless your house is a blue cube |
